Lock/disable touchpad while typing

[This is not RSS Popper related]

I needed a way to prevent mouse clicks if I touch the touchpad accidentally while I'm typing on my laptop. There are few free tools out there that automatically lock the touchpad while typing and releases it when you stop typing. However, none gave me the configuration options I wanted, thus came "Touchpad Locker".

Touchpad Locker locks/disables the touchpad while you're typing, releases it when you stop typing and gives you the freedom to tweak the details when/how long to lock the touchpad. It's a small weekend project, but I think it might be useful to others so I've placed it online. Have fun.

Twitter to Outlook

From time to time I get requests to write Twitter Add-In for Outlook, and every time I have the same answer: you can use RSS Popper to get updates from Twitter to Outlook (or any RSS reader for that matter).

Accessibility Support (MSAA)

It was brought to my attention that the 'Feeds Info' window does not allow people who are using Windows accessibility software (screen reading, MSAA) to get the feed names (they get 'checkbox' instead).
